České dráhy, a.s. (Czech Railways, Inc.) has presented its new website. This is the first fundamental change of the company website in five years. AARON GROUP is the author of the graphical concept.
The new website strongly emphasizes a complex dispatch of travelers. The main new feature is its own connection search engine – an application called "Cenový asistent" (Price Assistant). Users can utilize it for faster lookups of the most appropriate tickets. In addition, the website allows searching of current train positions and procurement of information on irregular shutdowns. For the future, the company anticipates a launch of a leisure-time portal with travel tips, information about the weather and accommodation at the destination, and a catalog of Czech Railways cars. The new website has been in huge demand and has been visited by almost 50% more visitors than the old one.
